Abstract

A microwave radiation intensity indicator based on an antenna-coupled detector (rectenna), an amplifier, and a semiconductor light-emitting diode was constructed and tested. This device is a hybrid integrated circuit, where a microstrip log-periodic antenna on a dielectric substrate also serves as a mechanical carrier. The possibility of visual determination of the shape of the antenna radiation pattern and the shape of an object based on the reflected radiation intensity was demonstrated experimentally at 10 and 30 GHz.
